as someone who has no emotional attachment to cayde whatsoever (i was literally not here for it lol) ppl being bitchy about his fans being happy are really annoying ngl
if your big complaint about him coming back is "god his fans are SO annoying, they are already flooding the tags whaaa".... you are being just as insufferable tbh
#'people are happy. how annoying' like bRUH#like i understand fans being annoying sometimes but jesus let people get excited about their faves in peace#mute the tag block the fans and move on#i do understand being concerned about the story btw#i think its a valid concern overall#but as someone who never got to meet cayde at all im okay with it so far#'it cheapens his death' i was not here for his death susan#i only heard about the man#him coming back - even if just for a bit or just as a memory or whatever - at least gives me an opportunity to interact with an important+#character bungie decided i just wont meet bc of the sunsetting#it can be just a ploy to hype the final shape? sure#can it also be an opportunity for new players to meet someone everyone just wont shut up about? yeah!#can it still be a good plot point in general? yeah#can it be bad writing? also yeah!#ppl are going full christmas turkey about this#dying on the eve of the thing in question#anyway#destiny 2#ren.txt#destiny

I've been scrolling through the Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog tag and I absolutely love how many people keep saying that they've never played a Sonic game before or they don't play games in general and how they appreciated the accessibility options.
A silly game like this is bringing all these people into the fandom for the first time or back into it and I couldn't be happier about it. Welcome to all the new peeps!! And welcome back to some of yall!! Glad to have ya!
This is probably the best game to have as your first, I've never loved a Sonic game more. It's really igniting my love this franchise again. (I'm never getting out am I)
#the murder of sonic the hedgehog#so happy seeing all the new people find out about sonic!#also with prime and the movies too!#you're all valid!!#i also love seeing little kids hyped up about sonic cuz of prime#this franchise has so much good in it and i love it despite all the bad things#SDB rambles

everyday I miss miitomo .. aaa
#these screenshots are not even good or the most interesting/funny/cool ones from back then#they just so happen to be ones I found in a folder so am thinking about them solely for the memory of it all#WORST thing is I never even had friends (still don't have friends really that have many similar interests to me lol..epic hermit moment) who#played or were willing to do I didn't really use the social aspects much. if there were any?? maybe I'm just making up a better game in my#head lol.. I thought maybe you could visit your friends apartments at some point or something? I know you could have multiple mii characters#and put them in their own apartments too.#I could also be mixing it in my mind with tomodachi life. which is a superior game. but also I think mostly I just loved the dress up and#photo creation aspects of this. That you could spend like 30 minutes putting your little avatar person in different lttle poses with differe#nt backgrounds and import your own custom background and etc. etc. And the community questions & answers section was always ridiculous#WHY is it that all actually good and cool things end up shutting down and nobody cares about them but then some tv shows/games/etc. can keep#going for like 808989598590 years when they are actually very bad and stinky and pointless#I know probably something somehting profit motive. if something sucks but is hyped blindly and sells then that's all that matters.#things that are cool and innocative but have a small audience get poo poo pee pee Not Good Enough For Shareholders whatever#>:(#This is why I don't play apps or online games /anything live service or that is dependent on external things to function#Like every once in a while I do but for the most part if something is not it's own self contained experience then I dont care to even get#invested in the first place because it could just randomly be taken away from you at any time without warning or etc.#Also just charmed by anything that incorporates personality tests into part of the structure of an app even in a minor.comepletely trivial w#ay due to my preexisting obsession with anything in the realm of that topic (enneagram. mbti. etc. even astrology. just any way humans categ#orzie and analyze themselves.

okay but like everyone saying that the title of Tears of the Kingdom is referencing all the trauma Hyrule has faced from the demise cycle n stuff make some real interesting points, but I don’t think that’s what the title is referencing at all.
Pretty much all Zelda titles have been pretty literal in some way, like ocarina of time references the physical ocarina of time, majora’s mask references an actual mask called majora, the wind waker the wind waker, four sword four sword, twilight princess the princess of twilight, spirit tracks has trains, skyward sword a skyward sword etc etc even Breath of the Wild is referencing the massive open world + freedom of movement which constitutes the main gimmick of the game. There are very few if any exceptions to this. They all reference a defining feature of the game, something concrete about the game that separates it from the others. Referencing the reoccurring trauma of hyrule...doesn’t really fit this bill, I think. It’s too vague, and applicable to pretty much any other zelda game.
I would wager that the tears reference a specific defining element of the game, something specific about the story or gameplay. In other words, I don’t think the tears are going to be a metaphor for something, like sadness or the longterm destruction of the kingdom, but rather actual physical tears.
I have three main ideas of how this could manifest:
1. We’re gonna get more sheikah lore.
It would make sense considering how much more they were elaborated on in botw. In fact, not only did botw provide pretty much the vast majority of the canon lore about the sheikah as of now, but it implemented many ideas that could definitely be elaborated on, such as the sheikah monks, the ancient technology, and the yiga clan. Especially considering how tears of the kingdom was originally supposed to be botw dlc but got too big for that, it makes sense that elaborating on some of these things would be the natural first step to build off of in tears of the kingdom.
But how does this connect to the title? The sheikah are the shadow folk who for generations served the hylian royal family. However, their symbol is an eye with a tear drop coming from it. I don’t think it is so absurd to imply that the sheikah themselves might be the tears of the kingdom.
considering how sheikah-centric botw was, I don’t think it’s too much of a leap to consider that tears of the kingdom would plunge even further into the lore behind them. And if the title isn’t referencing the sheikah themselves, it could still be referencing one of their technologies, such as...idk...
The TEAR DROP THING THAT UPGRADES THE SHEIKAH SLATE.
Like,,,, what is this magic goop stuff that powers all the sheikah technology??? WHAT IS IT??? and like IT’S A LITERAL MAGIC TEAR, I would not put it past nintendo at all to go “actually wait a minute what is this glowy blue shit, let’s make a dlc about that oops it got too elaborate”
which leads to my next proposition (which sort of connects to this one)
2. It’s drawing from those segments of Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess where link had to collect tears
many people have already proposed this but I haven’t really seen it connected to the first point I made yet so I’m proposing this anyway. So like, magic tears are not a new concept to zelda at all and there are probably many instances I’m forgetting of like random collectibles and potions but the two most prominent instances are in Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword where link is given a vessel to collect divine tears
and these vessels look miiiighty similar to
this thing link has on his hip that replaces the sheikah slate...
now, as I said I am far from the first person to notice this or even connect the title to the sheikah and I am sure someone else has made this connection before but I don’t care because I’m just having fun lol but like
this new vessel could be collecting something that is or is similar to the blue liquid powering sheikah tech, maybe even some kind of substance that predates it that was later turned into the blue sheikah goo (especially considering the prevalence of zonai symbology, and considering they were strong magic weilders, maybe the sheikah tech goo was based off of magic zonai goo??) but idk I’m just saying shit now.
But I think this is especially plausible considering just how much botw pulled from skyward sword, with the stamina mechanic and the glider basically being a souped up sailcloth, and now with tears of the kingdom straight up having souped up skyloft...it would make sense that the zelda team might also revisit the tear collecting mechanic and soup it up. But like what do I know because
3. In all honesty it’s entirely likely that there is no way to predict what the title means.
Yes, nintendo did say the title would contain spoilers, which would imply that it is possible to extrapolate something important about the game from it. However, the legend of zelda also has a habit of not giving two shits about precedence and going in whatever wild direction it wants regardless of what it has done or established before. Honestly, I think that’s one of the series traits that makes it so amazing, but it also makes it incredibly difficult if not near impossible to predict anything about its future. Like, back in the ocarina of time days, no one would have guessed that one day link would turn into a wolf, ride a talking boat, or fly on an enormous red bird. There was absolutely no precedence set for that lmao.
So while I am confident in my theory that the title refers to something physical that pertains to the specific game rather than something that connects all the games, as well as the likelihood that physical thing connects to the sheikah (+ by extension maybe also the zonai?) and their technology goo, and that the game is likely taking inspo from the tears collection mechanic from skyward sword and twilight princess, I have absolutely NO DOUBT that even if all of that turns out to be true, nintendo is going to do something really wierd and unexpected from there and it will be near impossible to guess what. And honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way.
(it also means my theory that link’s new glowy blue hand talks, has a personality, and has a personal, paper-related, vendetta is still on the table)
#Tears of the Kingdom#this isnt to shit on anyone saying it's referencing demise's cyclical curse on hyrule because that's a totally valid take#and it's totally possible that's going to be part of it#especially considering the ouroboros#and also because I could be totally wrong lmao#as I said nintendo likes to be surprising#it's all just theory rn#this is just my theory lol#either way I'm so hyped#the legend of zelda tears of the kingdom#botw2#I apologize to anyone who actually reads this#tloz#loz#the legend of zelda

JAMES CORDEN WAS IN THE ORIGINAL RUN OF THE HISTORY BOYS?????????? oh my god that makes such horrifying perfect sense
#the way that i saw the history boys on broadway as a teen after much hype and was like. Hm. I Hate This Actually#and the way i was so so so valid and right for that#the way i watched the movie [WHICH ALSO HAS JAMES CORDEN] with a bunch of people in college and was like#Wow This Sucks Even Worse Than I Remember And All These People Around Me Who Like It Are Wrong#like literally what a visionary#my hatred for that play was already like epochal#and that was before i learned it was partly responsible for tricking the world into believing james corden can act#wow. wowie zowie. wow.

seeing deviantart being bullied and burnt was genuinely pretty fucking funny. deviantart has been disappointing for a long while, and even more disappointing when it switched to eclipse. even during my times on the older layout, i still had some beefs with deviantart. but eclipse, and now this update - no matter if they've reupdated their update to tame the people holding the torches - has completely ruined deviantart for me.
to me, deviantart has been ruined for a while. to uncensored fetish art, to the annoying lack of care to people without core (even when i had core), to deviantart doing a "deviantart protection" tool for only core members & more. and then eclipse. as someone who was on deviantart for few years, i can surely say that DA has been dead (half exaggeration) for a while - the impact the eclipse had on the userbase was surely surreal. the amounts of viewers and faves that had drop on many people's artwork. the amounts of groups that has been inactive or extremely slow with letting others post submissions after a folder limit, to the point specific fanart would be harder to gain traction because of the specific fandom groups being dead/semi-active.
deviantart has been so close to tripping over the edge, and you can desperately see its trying to stand straight. it stings my heart. but not only because i hold some emotional attachment to the website, but because social media has been hitting their artists with a spikey bat for a long time. we can't just forget to mention that deviantart is just that one website.
there's a big key that makes its presence so unique to the point it can be hard to let go: professionals or hobbyists, artists with different skill levels, fanarts or original artists, many artists making simple-detailed or extremely-detailed art -- deviantart offered more opportunities for different types of artists to get popular more than social medias like insta and twitter. pixiv, furaffinity, and more could've easily replaced deviantart, but deviantart had stayed on top (and will continue to stay on top for a while) because its definition of "specific art you need to make for a presence, popularity, money" is more ranged than other websites - and offers more hype for various of artists or various of things to draw.
don't get me wrong, deviantart has its flaws that can fuck up artists as well. deviantart wasn't the perfect fucking heaven for every artist - and it certainly still isn't now. i'm an old user so deviantart could be transitioning to become like any other website right now and is being biased about specific artstyles/art. but i just can't deny deviantart's impact and that deviantart is pretty unique. and i hope one day, an art website that could have more mercy on artists gets launched.
#deviantart#i didn't have the BEST time on deviantart. i did before but then i felt as if i was stuck focusing on one fandom. i wasn't all that popular#i really hope anyone isn't offended. this is not meant to be a poor attempt at a ''flex''#i had hundred followers. i wasn't the greatest artist ofc. though i was one that was slowly improving. the fact people took a chance on me#just felt so validating and urged me to learn more about art. the fact i looked at many types of artists being hyped- gave me some hope#though sadly there were many times my 'hope' was overshadowed by negativity since i felt like my followers didn't care about me and#life was getting so fucking rough man. and my followers didn't care for any other content except for that one... fandom.#so i kinda went poof for a while. i came back. but then oh fucking wait... eclipse is coming!!! bleh. that was bad.#but yeah my point is that deviantart was a pretty good web that offered some more freedom and *less* pressure than other sites#another big point of mines is that. leaving deviantart WASN'T just bc of the AI update. and its been failing for a long while

1 week
#Cruddy rambles#I can survive 1 more week#By God I'm GOING to survive one more week#Pleaaaase let the special announcement actually be something. I am literally clinging to it like a cliff.#If we don't get something substantial AND there's fuji TV break week that week I think I'm just going to start crying forever#I literally- even if it's just a 5s teaser trailer I'll be so happy#I just need something to carry me to August 6th#I hope we get new eyecatchers in the form of looney tunes That's All Folks#Not relevant I think but I do hope.#You know I bottled up an entire year's worth of hype after march 2022#So I think going ballistic on main is valid and I deserve it 100% and I'm not taking any criticisms
